    Did you see the fights WALDO had with former middleweight Byrd? Walked right through him didn't he :rofl:rofl:rofl

    Either fighter could get starched in this one, make no mistake about that but you have to keep posting the same tired old ****....

    Incidentally VITLAY couldn't take the punches of former middleweight Byrd either, so your analysis that he'd destroy Haye because Haye went down against a former super middleweight is somewwhat flawed, to say the least considering Haye went on to stop the super middleweight and VITLAY quit rather than face the punishment the former middleweight would dish out to him :deal

    That's the appeal for this fight: two big punchers who can be knocked out.

    Exactly, which is why it's a good thing it's been signed. The contract is bull**** everyone knows that (other than the usual suspects) but the main thing for me is if Haye is as good as we think he is he'll come through this, embarrass the two robots and unify the division. The Klitschkos ***** moves may well come back to haunt them on this because I'm sure if Haye KO's WALDO and then wins the rematch VITLAY will suddenly discover an injury and retire....he has a bullys nature and is a **** of a human being, unlike his brother.

    There is nothing unusual about the three fight options contract and rematch clause in this contract. I've been following boxing for 30 years and I have seen this sort of thing often.

    If Haye ever becomes heavyweight champion, then his promoter will force all of Haye's opponents to sign similar options contracts. It's just business...it's way of hedging against the remote possibility that the unexpected occurs.

    Give some examples and the name of the promoter in every case.

    But Byrd obviously DID hurt him in the ring that night, otherwise he wouldn't have quit :deal

    Fighters have fought on through FAR worse injuries than VITLAY got that night against Byrd, and against far more dangerous opposition too. Ali V Norton is the prime example.

    Maybe I'm misreading the deal, but if Haye beats Wladimir, would the Klitschkos then get to decide if Haye fights Vitlay or Wald next? Say Haye wins the June 20 fight, is given Vitlay, and is knocked out... can the Klitschkos make him fight his "comeback" fight against Wladimir for good measure?

    WALDO was winning the fight with Brewster too, before his 'injury', so what?

    If VITLAY was the murderous puncher people keep trying to say he is then surely he'd have had feather fisted Byrd out of there in the early rounds, like Ike did :huh

    The answer to that is yes, and that is the problem with this deal. It is not a rematch deal as has been stated, it's a ***** move to ensure that if they get beaten up then the Klits get to fight against a scrub for a version of the belt that they themselves have forced Haye to vacate with their bull**** contract. Haye said it himself - he could beat WALDO twice and VITLAY once and still end up only holding 1 of the belts, that is utterly ridiculous

    These kinds of contracts were very typical of Bob Arum (Top Rank Promotions) and Don King in the past, especially in the '70s and '80s. Universum used such contracts when promoting the Klitschkos in the '90s. Do some a google search...you'll find lots of examples.

    You are all over the place with this. The Klitschko's forcing Haye to drop belts? :lol::rofl:patsch

    The ONLY way any of this matters is if David Haye wins the fight. He loses and it is all a moot point. Haye wil go back to handpicking the Monte Barrett's of the heavyweight Division to fight.
